This course gives a wide introduction of business metrics, many concepts are involved, among which some concepts and terminology should be further explained or be self-studied with given materials.
por MDFeb 2, 2017
Good to get an understanding of a Business Analyst / Business Data Analyst / Data Scientist job.\n\nFinancial concepts brought seem a bit out of place in the context of this specific course though.
